My EP is one the top EPs at a large university based medical center. Been in the field over 35 years and says he does not do ablations for PACs. He says that you have be in the area of the heart when the PACs are firing. They cannot be mapped like Afib. That said he just did my 2nd Afib ablation on Sept 25th and said he was able to reach both the front and rear side of the heart. He said he was hoping that maybe he was able to help with the PACs even though his primary mission was Afib. He was satisfied that I should see an improvement with Afib and he was very humble and careful with his wording that I "might " see some improvement with PACs. Fortunately my PACs have been more intermittent the past few months since I had that monitor reading.
